Coppola, who operates the Francis Ford Coppola Winery in California, launched the range after securing a craft spirits license. He also plans to expand the range in the near future.

“My mother, sister, wife, daughter, and granddaughters have all inspired me, as have all of the incredible women we celebrate with Great Women Spirits,” said Coppola.

“We all know well the great men of history, Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Napoleon and so on. I can think of as many women who distinguished themselves at that level in the fields of politics, science, mathematics and philosophy, so my choices and reasons for this collection are very personal.”

Great Women Spirits will officially launch on Ada Lovelace Day on October 10 at Cafe Zoetrope in San Francisco. It will be available in select restaurants and retailers.
